Terence Crawford says that his fight against Canelo Alvarez at 168 is “the biggest boxing fight”, bigger than a match involving “the Mexican monster” David Benavidez faces Alvarez.

Crawford (41-0, 31 KB) declares that each time you get an African-American fighter against a Mexican, it is “Always the biggest fight in history.“To strengthen its point of view, Bud stresses that the 1993 fight between Julio Cesar Chavez and Pernell Whitaker 32 years ago was enormous. Using it as an example does not correspond. Whitaker and Chavez were both popular. Crawford cannot draw flies, and this fight would not occur without the Riyadh season.
The real problem with the argument of Terence on his fight with Canelo being the “biggest” of sport, bigger than that involving Benavidez, is that It is not a popular Fighter with relaxed boxing fans. Crawford is only popular with a segment of hardcore fans, and he had only one successful PPV fight throughout his 17 -year career. It was against Errol Spence.
It was he who brought all PPV purchases for this fight, not Crawford. The event succeeded despite the Drag de Terence. Today’s casual boxing fan would not be able to choose Crawford in a program. For them, he is just an old man with a root of hair down. Canelo is the star here. I will never know what the Turki sees in Crawford.
The story of Crawford PPV
Israil Madrimov: 200k on Dazn
Errol Spence: 700K Showtime
David Avaneyan: 120K on Blk Prime
Shawn Porter: 190k on espn
Amir Khan: 200k on espn
Viktor Postol: 60K on HBO
If Canelo had the courage to fight Benavidez, this fight would have taken place centuries ago, and it would be finished and finished now. I think Benavidez would have beaten Canelo and took first place as a boxing face. Canelo was kept artificially in first place, moving Benavidez away.
“I look at the story. It is an inherited fight, and it is the biggest boxing fight right now,” said Terence Crawford to beat 4 pounds with Kamaru YouTube Channel and Henry about his fight against Canelo Alvarez on September 13. “Many people could say,” We want to see Benavidez and Canelo. »»
Crawford seems deceived and desperate to ensure that its fight against Canelo seems more than it is – a pathetic money taking to deceive the gullible fans of their dough. If it was an inheritance, Crawford would have exceeded until 168 and put his soft skin on the line against Benavidez, David Morrell and Osley Iglesias to sink it. It is about money, and it is so painfully obvious that even your average half event can see the truth.
Fan disconnection
“As a boxing fan, it would be a fight to see, but to be real, Canelo against Terence Crawford is the largest boxing fight today. There is no bigger fight that is larger than Canelo-Crawford. 100%, ”said Bud when he was asked if his fight against Alvarez would be greater than Canelo against David Benavidez.
If Crawford was a PPV star, his latest fight against Israil Madrimov would not have been erased, bringing 200,000 lamentable purchases on Dazn despite a busy subcart. Fans do not care about crawford.
“African-American-mexican, they always make the biggest fights in history, returning to Pernell Whitaker-Chavez [on September 10, 1993]”Said Crawford.” It’s going to be electrifying. I can easily fight Vergil Ortiz, Fundora or anyone to make money quickly, but I look at the situation as a whole.
“This is an inherited fight, a generational fight that we have been talking about for years. When I am, they will talk about:” Dude, you remember when Crawford came to 168 to fight Canelo, two book fighters for the world book in the world, fighting. “”
